Querying your Invites on LinkedIn

I will only link with people I have met.

As I meet so many people I don’t always remember where and when I have met them so I send this;

“Thank you for inviting me to link in to your network.

Please forgive me and my memory; remind me where we have met.

You may say "Will Kintish' are you losing it?" Well maybe I am but again I ask for forgiveness as in my role I meet literally thousands of people annually!

I am being cautious as I want to be able to help, recommend and introduce all my level 1 contacts to anyone when asked. I know you will appreciate this would be difficult if we haven't actually met.

I do hope you understand the reason for my question.

Best Wishes

Will”
